03D with Syncman Plus & Analog Multitrack
This application shows how the 03D can be used with an 8-track analog multitrack recorder
to create an 18-input, 7-track recording system. As shown in Figure 27, track eight of the
multitrack recorder has been striped with SMPTE timecode. This is then fed to the
Midiman Syncman Plus, which converts the SMPTE to MTC and feeds it to the 03D. The
seven analog tape returns and 18 Mic/Line inputs provide up to 25 inputs at mixdown. In
addition, the 03D’s built-in automix and scene memory systems provide both dynamic and
static mix automation referenced to MIDI timecode.
The Midiman Syncman Plus is an SMPTE to MTC converter and MTC generator. Front
panel DIP switches are used to select the timecode type when working as a generator. For
SMPTE to MTC conversion the frame rate is detected and set automatically.
Connections
• The 03D’s analog bus outs are connected to the multitrack recorder’s inputs.
• The seven tape returns are connected to 03D channel inputs 9 through 16.
03D Wordclock Setup
The 03D works as wordclock master, and can be set to either 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz on the D.in
Setup page, which is accessed using the [DIO] button.
